BW Webinar Invite | New Intermediary Guidelines | BW Legal World

The New Intermediary Guidelines have created quite a stir since its announcement. 

The Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021 now mandate the intermediaries to identify the first originator of the information. This provision has come under the line of fire and has reignited the right to the privacy debate. 

A lot of questions have resurfaced on the scope of intermediary liability and related issues.

• Does the privacy of millions of users on messaging platforms stand compromised?
• Do the new guidelines overshadow the primary law on intermediaries under Section 79 of the IT Act, 2000?
• What Social Media Companies must know going forward?
• How does the compliance framework change and what does it entail for small players?
• What are the loose ends under the new guidelines that need to be ironed out?

Join us for a webinar as we look to find the answers to some poignant questions around the topic.
